Question No: 1
In the computer lab of a school a wired network is configured for 10 devices using bus topology, hence only a
single user can send data at a time.

Following is the further configuration detail of this network:

Addressing scheme Dynamic

Bandwidth 5 Megabits / second
Topology Bus
Multiplexing type Time Division
Encoding used Manchester

At time t transfer of a complete file is initiated by user A in this network and after 1 minute or time t+1 user B
also wishes to send a file but have to wait for 1 minute. Assuming this scenario, you are required to find out the
file size in MB (Mega Byte) that has been sent by user A.

Note: You need to consider 1 Mega Byte equal to 1000000 Byte for calculations and write all necessary
formulas and calculation steps to give your answer.
Solution:
t1 = 1min =60 sec
t2 = t1+1 = 1+1 = 2 min = 120 sec
Bandwidth = 5 MB = 5000kbps

?
t 2=¿
t 1∗bandwidth

? = t1 * t2 * Bandwidth
File size = 60 *120*5000
File size = 36000,000 1 Megabyte = 1000000
File size = 36000,000 / 1000000
File size = 36 MB Ans…
Question No: 2
You have already studied about two famous probing tools “Ping” and “Trace Route” and you know about the
advantages and disadvantages of each. It’s time to explore a new probing tool called “PathPing”. Your task is
to practice the “PathPing” command using command prompt to target vu.edu.pk over a maximum of 3 hops.
Provide a single screenshot containing the command as well as complete results including statistics in your MS
Word solution file.

Note: PathPing command is to be practiced in Windows based operating system, alternatively you can use
“mtr” command for Linux based systems.
